This past summer I purchased a 1942 script GPW sn. 4090 Dod 3-4-42. It's been restored and is a great runner. Do you know which plant it was likely to have been built at? Randy Harnish

Wow! That's kind of a special jeep then that you might find pictures of in old newspapers etc. It's very difficult to find the history of a specific jeep, but in your case you've got a great head start!

And, I see it's your first post; WELCOME!

I just purchased GPW serial number 30862
5-15-42
It is missing the original Ford Script rear panel (tailgate). I will have to start researching what parts are correct and what has been replaced over the years.
